Odd words

They say things come in threes and today that's true, and three good things at that.

Firstly, the sunshine - never underestimate the power of a clear blue sky to brighten a mood. I'm finding myself smiling every time I look out the window, which is more often than it should be when I'm supposed to be finishing off a new draft of novel number two. The smiling may also have something to do with the other two good things that have happened today.

So, second good thing: Ursula's Secret has now been in the Kindle top 100 for 84 days which my calculator tells me is 12 weeks. 12 weeks! I'm very grateful to everyone that's reading it so if you're reading this too, thank you and I hope you enjoy the book.

Lastly, I've just heard that Black and White have secured a deal for Ursula's Secret to be published in Poland. When I spent all that time creating characters, giving them voices and putting words into their mouths, I never for a second imagined they might end up speaking those words in another language. Especially one I don't speak myself. Happy days!
